Angry Samoans is the fifth studio album by the American hip hop group Boo-Yaa T.R.I.B.E. It was released internationally on May 20, 1997[1] through the band's own record label, First Kut Organization.[2] Upon release, the group embarked on a tour of Europe to promote the album.[1]
In contrast to the group's early work, which were in line with funk and West Coast hip hop styles of Above the Law, N.W.A, and Kid Frost, the album features a rap metal[2][3] sound that is entirely reliant on live drums and guitars.[4] The album's lyrical themes include homicide, carjacking, and marijuana use.[5]
